How can I create a contact from an e-mail message I receive

Not much to go on since you didn't specify what version.

Outlook 2003 Help returns this:

1.. Open or preview the e-mail message that contains the name you want to
add to your contact list.

a..
1.. Right-click the name of the sender you want to make into a contact,
and then click Add to Contacts on the shortcut menu.
2.. Notes
3.. If you do not see Add to Contacts, you may be using Microsoft Outlook®
Express instead of Microsoft Outlook®. Similar tasks can be performed in
Outlook Express; to find out more, search on Contacts in the Help. For more

versus Outlook Express.
a.. In Outlook, there isn't an option to have contact information
automatically added to Contacts or Address Book when you reply to them.

Ask in the body of the message, not the subject.

Open the received mail, right-click the sender's address and select Add to
Contacts.
